5. More Plagues Upon Egypt (5.) The murrain (Exodus 9:1-7), or epidemic pestilence which carried off vast numbers of cattle in the field. Warning was given of its coming. (6.) The sixth plague, of "boils and blains," like the third, was sent without warning (Exodus 9:8-12). It is called (Deuteronomy 28:27) "the botch of Egypt," in the A.V. but in R.V., "the boil of Egypt."

The plague of locusts, which covered the whole face of the earth, so that the land was darkened with them (Exodus 10:12-15). Warning was given before this plague came.

7. Plagues Upon Egypt (9.) After a short interval the plague of darkness succeeded that of the locusts; and it came without any special warning (Exodus 10:21-29).

The last and most fearful of these plagues was the death of the first-born of man and of beast (Exodus 11:4,5; 12:29,30). (from Easton's Bible Dictionary)
